Ok, heres whats wrong with my little friend... whenever I start her up after its been sitting for at least an hour, it idles really really bad...then when i goto shift , it wants to cut out and stall. well, it finally did stall for the first time last night...so whats wrong with that and how do u fix it? :-) second thing...not sure if this is a problem as my friends just told me that its normal...but i figured id mention it anyways...if im coming off a trail onto a road in 4 wheel drive, and crank it hard either way...it feels like my two front tires are about to fall off...is that normal?
 






Could be a million things on the first part. O2 Sensors or MAF come to mind pretty quick. On the second part, your friend is right. When you are in 4WD on pavement (NOT recommended!!) and you turn the wheels, you will get MAJOR front wheel binding and hop. That's due to everything being locked together in the front end.
